Abstract:
An electroluminescent element and an electronic device including the electroluminescent element include a glass template having a silica layer as a matrix, electrodes and a luminescent material. Since the electroluminescent element according to the present invention includes silica as a matrix, the electroluminescent element has a stabilized structure even though a space between the luminescent layer and the electrode of the glass template is not filled. Further, such an electroluminescent element may be easily prepared, and thus may be effectively applied to various electronic devices, such as display devices, illumination devices and backlight units.

Abstract:
Disclosed is an organic thin film transistor, including a substrate, a gate electrode, a gate insulating layer, an organic semiconductor layer, and source/drain electrodes, in which a fluorine-based polymer thin film is provided between the source/drain electrodes and the organic semiconductor layer. A method of fabricating such an organic thin film transistor is also provided. According to example embodiments, the organic thin film transistor may have increased charge mobility and an Ion/Ioff ratio, due to decreased contact resistance between the source/drain electrodes and the organic semiconductor layer. Moreover, upon the formation of the organic semiconductor layer and insulating film, a wet process may be more easily applied, thus simplifying the fabrication process and decreasing the fabrication cost.
